What Size/Color Pillows For Dining Room Chairs?
Hi,
I am struggling with what size and color pillow should be added to my new dining room chairs. They look like they are missing a comfortable pillow. I was thinking light gray to tie in with the gray in the living room? Am I on track with the color? I tried taking the pillows from the sofa to see if the size worked in the dining room chairs. 12x12 looked the best but I needed it to mush more down, not as firm. Thoughts?

What size area rug for dining room
Comments (4)The rug is too small--it is smaller than your table. Quite a bit of it will be covered by the base and people won't be able to see much of it. Even a 5' x 8' rug might not be large enough--I've sat at more than one dining table perched on a 5' x 8' rug and the back legs of the chair weren't on the rug. If you want to add color to your dining room, can you return the rug and use the money to buy some artwork for the walls? Do you have curtains in the room? Or how about a tablecloth? Or some plants?...See MoreThrow pillows and dining room chairs
Comments (19)Less obvious attention [but still nice] with chairs that have sturdy fabric a bit metallic, like beautiful console has gold detail. ------ Shimmering solid of silver metallic foil on dark taupe slubby linen. This is still transitional, and not showy-modern. Too much? idk. https://www.houzz.com/products/metallic-silver-coated-taupe-linen-fabric-prvw-vr~10860088...See Morewhat color dining room chairs
Comments (3)I suggest cream or off white! My dining room table came with 6 chairs but can seat 8 and when we have that many for dinner, I mix the chairs up between the all wood chairs that came with the table and cream colored Parson's chairs and it works!...See MoreDining Room Size for a 10x12 room that was a laundry room originally
Comments (25)If a small table is good for everyday, there are workarounds for occasional family get-togethers. Reading Sarah Susanka's books may give you some ideas for having your spaces live large. For example, she suggests 2 smallish tables that are the same height, that can be put together for occasional larger dining needs. For large meals we split people up between the kitchen and dining room tables, and the rule is that mid-meal you shuffle places so you have different dining companions for dessert. For holiday meals my MIL used to put tables end-to-end that covered the full length of living-dining room, such that the people on the far side needed to crawl under the table to get there. Obviously that was for the younger more nimble people. The kids loved it and still talk fondly about diving under the table. If your need is for a more elegant dining experience for couples, that obviously won't work LOL....See More

12 days agoOkay, now that I know everyone thinks my dining room and living room look awful, when I loved it. Oh well. I did benches because we already had 6 chairs around the island. We didn’t want more chairs, and the chairs would block our view out of the windows. The tables and benches were handmade, and not going anywhere, I love them. I also love the beige chairs I just got. It brightens up the table area, we originally had brown chairs there and it was too dark. I am keeping what I have, I just wanted pillow advice. Maybe I’ll swap some of the sofas ones out for some color, then the pillow for each of the dining room chairs could have some of that color too.
